Examining possible
playoff matchups

see in 2003. They're sweet. Dec 31.
Team by team
New Year's Resolutions
With the New Year upon us, NBA teams will be making adjustments
in either their playoff runs for the championship, or their tanking plans for
the #1 pick in the draft. I've taken it upon myself to suggest a few New Year's
resolutions... Dec 30.
Clippers need holiday
cheer
Fan editorial. The Clippers have a holiday gift in Lamar
Odom's return, but should they made a trade? This fan editorial suggestions a
pretty major trade, where they'd give a lot, but gain a lot in return. Dec 29.
Chicago playoffs possible
Chicago is thinking postseason, baby, and other playoff contenders
should be afraid of a team that could do some serious damage in the playoffs.
Coach Bill Cartwright believes it can happen. As for the rest of the world, that's
a different story... Dec 27.
The gift that
keeps on giving
NBA fans must have been awfully good this year. Dec 26.
NBA rules analysis:
make him earn a defensive stop
"Make him earn it at the line." Those seven words

artistry and well-honed skills while rewarding thuggery and the deliberate breaking
of rules. Dec 24.
Observations from
Chicago vs. New Jersey
Easily-digestable notes from Bulls vs. Nets matchup in the
Swamp Monday night. Dec 24.

The most qualified guys should always play, regardless of
popularity, position, or chances to win the game...
Players wearing
other players' jerseys

a weird effect on me lately. Everywhere you look, outside, on TV, wherever, someone
is wearing a cool-because-it's-ugly Alex English jersey or a totally nonsensical
Kobe "MPLS" deal.
